  Hello all,

  Someone else set up this WordPress site, and I’m trying to fix a few things. But I ran into an odd problem. When registering for the site, it provides this error message:

  “ERROR: This email is already registered, please choose another one.”

  It still gets submitted to the WordPress dashboard for the admins to approve, yet to the regular person trying to register for the site would never know.

  I want that message to go away, and better yet, I would like it so it redirects to a page saying something along the lines of, “Thank you for registering, you will receive an email shortly”, etc.

  The site uses the Cimy User Extra Fields plugin, and the New User Approve plugin. So I’m not sure if it has to do with the wp-login.php, or if it is a conflict between the two plugins, or if it is an error of either plugin.

  The registration form in question can be found at this link:
  http://medimizer.com/wp-login.php?action=register

  I really appreciate any advice anyone could give me. Thank you.

  We cannot help you here with that site. We provide support only for free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and you are posting to the wrong support forum.

  WordPress.com and WordPress.org have different log-ins and run different versions of themes with same names. If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there and receive advice from WordPress.ORG bloggers.
